kehitysriski

Kehitysriski, a Finnish term, translates to "development risk" in English. It encompasses the uncertainties and potential negative outcomes that can arise during the process of developing a new product, service, or system. This can include risks related to technology, market acceptance, project management, and financial feasibility.

Technological development risks might involve unforeseen technical challenges, the obsolescence of chosen technologies, or the inability to integrate different technological components. Market development risks pertain to a lack of customer interest, unexpected competitor actions, or misjudgments about market demand and trends. Project management risks include budget overruns, schedule delays, scope creep, and resource limitations. Financial risks are associated with the potential for the development project to not generate the expected return on investment, or to incur costs exceeding projections.

Effectively managing kehitysriski involves identifying potential risks early in the development lifecycle, assessing their likelihood and impact, and implementing mitigation strategies. This can involve thorough market research, prototyping, rigorous testing, agile development methodologies, contingency planning, and regular risk reviews. The goal is to minimize the probability of negative outcomes and ensure the successful completion and adoption of the developed entity.
